American cuisine is a style of food preparation originating from the United States of America. European colonization of the Americas yielded the introduction of a number of ingredients and cooking styles to the latter. The various styles continued expanding well in to the 19th and 20th centuries, proportional to the influx of immigrants from many foreign nations; such influx developed a rich diversity in food preparation throughout the country.

I think "Modern American Cuisine" is a nebulous catch-all that is meant to distinguish utilitarian, post-war American cuisine from the American cuisine that has developed over the past 30-35 years which is more artisanal and experimental in nature. I would put California cuisine, Molecular Gastronomy, Fusion (many varieties), New Southern cuisine in the category of "Modern American Cuisine."

I think American cuisine is going to change to become more interesting, maybe even exciting. Chefs and cooks are looking at regional and ethnic roots, reinforcing some of the best traditions and established patterns. Local sourcing is adding a new influence toward reviving traditions and regional styles. My personal biases don't let me judge the tendency toward (con)fusion of cuisines and styles, but there's a lot of unexplored potential for meeting the public's ever greater curiousity about foreign and ethnic cuisines and styles. As Jonas Luster wrote, American chefs have sharpened their ability to interpret American traditions in new and different ways, and this extends into their treatment of borrowed and imported dishes and foods.
